It is applicable to Diamond DA42 aircraft that have been modified by TCCA STC number SA09-54 and FAA STC number SA02725NY which installs the Lycoming IO-360 engines. It replaces in its entirety the original DA42 Airplane Flight Manual. The AFM includes all the data which must be made available to the pilot according to the Transport Canada CAR-523 requirement. Beyond this, it contains further data and operating instructions which, in the manufacturer's opinion, could be of value to the pilot. Equipment and modification level (design details) of the airplane may vary from serial number to serial number. Therefore, some of the information contained in this manual is applicable depending on the respective equipment and modification level. The exact equipment of your serial number is recorded in the Equipment Inventory in Paragraph 6.5. The modification level is recorded in the following table (as far as necessary for this manual). This Airplane Flight Manual must be kept on board the airplane at all times. Its designated place is the side pocket of the forward left seat. The designated place for the Garmin G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide is in the bag on the rear side of the forward left seat.

The system consists of a Primary Flight Display (PFD), Multi-Function Display (MFD), audio panel, Air Data Computer (ADC), Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS), engine sensors and processing unit (GEA), and integrated avionics (GIA) containing VHF communications, VHF navigation, and GPS (Global Positioning System). (b) The primary function of the PFD is to provide attitude, heading, air data, navigation, and alerting information to the pilot. The PFD may also be used for flight planning. The primary function of the MFD is to provide engine information, mapping, terrain information, and for flight planning. The audio panel is used for selection of radios for transmitting and listening, intercom functions, and marker beacon functions. (c) The primary function of the VHF Communication portion of the G1000 is to enable external radio communication. The primary function of the VOR/ILS Receiver portion of the equipment is to receive and demodulate VOR, Localizer, and Glide Slope signals. The primary function of the GPS portion of the system is to acquire signals from the GPS satellites, recover orbital data, make range and Doppler measurements, and process this information in real- time to obtain the user's position, velocity, and time. (d) Provided a Garmin G1000 GPS receiver is receiving adequate usable signals, it has been demonstrated capable of and has been shown to meet the accuracy specifications for: (1) VFR/IFR enroute, oceanic, terminal, and non-precision instrument approach GPS, Loran-C, VOR, VOR-DME, TACAN, NDB, NDB-DME, RNAV) operation within the U.S. National Airspace System in accordance with AC 20-138A. (2) RNAV (GPS) Approaches - The G1000 GPS meets the requirements of AC 20 138(A) for GPS based RNAV approaches. This includes RNAV approaches labeled as RNAV (GPS), provided GPS sensor data is valid.
